Beautiful peaches are not always the best flavored; neither are handsome women the most amiable.
WILLIAM SCOTT DOWNEY, Proverbs
Beauty soon grows familiar to the lover, Fades in his eye, and palls upon the sense.
JOSEPH ADDISON, Cato
Beauty is power; a smile is its sword.
CHARLES READE
I find beauty in unusual things, like hanging your head out the window or sitting on a fire escape.
SCARLETT JOHANSSON, Seventeen Magazine, May 2007
It is better to be beautiful than to be good. But ... it is better to be good than to be ugly.
OSCAR WILDE, The Picture of Dorian Gray
If you get simple beauty and nought else, You get about the best thing God invents.
ROBERT BROWNING, Fra Lippo Lippi
